Civ cap in Warlords

[I_Dragon]

When warlords is released will they be lifting the civ cap to 26 ocivs or will there be more civs allowed on the map at one time? Thanks

What do you mean by "civ cap"?

 

[I_Dragon]

the number of civs that can play on a map at one time

 

[Naokaukodem]

What makes you think they should lift it to 26 in Warlords?

I imagine it may be raised to 24, although I imagine the modding community would be happy with just a downgrade from its hard-coded status.

there will be 26 civs and Iwant to know if they'll raise it higher than this so that you can add in your own civs aswell

Do it, i need a reason to spend ridiculous amounts of money on upgrading my PC.

24 would be the number, 18 from Vanilla plus six new ones

An unnamed source (mod-maker) has told me that they're hoping to lift that max/bug in the SDK.

People who pre-order the Civ4: Warlord special edition will find included in the package a free cap selected from the most popular:

You sound nearly as sarcastic as my 3 years old sister. Unfortunately this comes a little late.

And what has M-F to do with that topic? Your ignorance is so stupid.

Dude don't get your panties waded. It's well known perhaps not by you that early copies of Civ4 shipped to English speaking nations received a French tech poster.

I don't know what M-F has to do with the topic as I have no idea what M-F has to do with anything.

oh yeah in case you didn't know, cap = hat = chappeau

A la bonne heure... I'm just getting paranoïd then.

I don't find that the number of Civs impacts the performance of the game, I find map size is the biggest factor.

I am hoping that they raise the number to something more than 18 as well.

Having more than seven civs kills my computer(P4 3000, 1024ram) for some reason.

Also maps loaded with resources such as the fantasy maps have a big impact.

I would like to see more than 18 civs possible but its rather useless to me with my current pc.

I have a P3 800 mhz, windows 98, 512MB RAM, Geforce fx5500 with 256MB video RAM.

I play on the highest graphics settings and the game runs great.

I play 18 civs all the time, I see no difference playing 18 Civs on a standard map or 7 Civs on a standard map. I get performance hits going to huge maps.

This is an instant-classic post!

 

[Willowmound]

Cap will be raised or removed completely, so say my sources!

Do you really want to play on a map where everyone is so crowded that frequent wars involving over five civs are possible?
I just wish for larger map sizes across the board.
